PVC CALIBRATION CYLINDERS


Features:
High Reliability / Low Cost High Contrast Graduation Markings Clear Easy-View Tube Robust Construction Direct GPH Readout Sealed Top with Overflow Connection Optional EZ-Clean Model Optional Open Top with Dust Cap

Operation:
Griffco calibration cylinders are installed in the suction line to the chemical metering pump. Two isolating valves, (not supplied) must be installed in the suction line as per the drawing below. The top of the cylinder should be vented back to the storage tank or to drain. Fill the cylinder to the top mark then close the valve from the chemical tank. Switch on the chemical feed pump and draw down the chemical in the cylinder for 30 seconds. Switch the pump off. The reading on the right side of the cylinder is a direct readout of USgph. Alternatively, observe the volume withdrawn on the ml scale. To convert to LPH or GPH use this formula: LPH = (volumedraw time) x 3.6 GPH = (volumedraw time) x 0.952

Griffco calibration cylinders are designed to enhance the performance of chemical feed systems by providing a verification of the flow rate of the chemical feed pump. Robust construction of clear PVC with an easy to read graduation in mls and gph. Available in three models: EZ-Clean, Vented, and Open Top; and 13 sizes; 100 mL through 20,000 mL as detailed here.

Note: Max. cylinder pressure is 15 psi.

Description of models:

Sealed: Top is glued to cylinder and contains a vent or overflow connection. (FNPT). Used in applications where there is a positive suction head and a permanent installation is desired.
C

Loose Cap: Top is loose and does not have a connection in the top. Dust cover only. Used in applications where there is no positive suction head and the cylinder must be filled from the top.

EZ-Clean: (Avail. 100 7000 mL only) Top is sealed with an O-ring and has a vent connection, but removable for easy cleaning. Used in applications where frequent cleaning is required such as polymer, alum, ferric chloride or chlorine.
